As the female suicide bombing in Diyala the other day demonstrates, the more Iraqi government and security forces take charge and the US takes a back seat to counterinsurgency, the emphasis on offense is going to increasingly shift to defense.
Some folks I met at the Modern Day Marine Expo last week have an interesting system called “Counter Bomber” that uses radar and some wiz bang algorithms to detect if someone is concealing a suicide vest under his clothing.
Here’s a short video that explains how the system works…
Counter Bomber costs about $300K, and that includes a computer and software that gives a no-joke “Marine proof” indication of whether someone’s hiding something or not. A chime sounds if the radar detects a signature (it basically can pick up metallic objects under clothing) and gives a green-for-safe or red-for-threat indicator as the person passes the Counter Bomber’s radar. The system works up to about 150 meters and the designers say it’s best to have a couple arrayed so security officers can get a 360-degree view of what the person might be hiding.
Company reps say there are 12 Counter Bombers fielded to Marines in combat: eight systems are fielded in Iraq, including al Asad air base and the busy entrance to Ramadi on route Michigan, and four are stationed in Afghanistan.

Sounds Good 2 me IF viable in the Field.
Radical,
All bombs have use some metal within.
Now expand this to City PD Ops & for Secret Service White House detail & State Dept Security
Needed worldwide.
Very cool. What is the feedback from the guys out in the field? I also imagine that they are able to tune this thing to differentiate between size or make up of an object on a person? Because I imagine the thing would go off all the time if aimed at the common Iraq(all have phones it seems)
How about developing a system that isolates people or even cars to be screened in a safe-zone, then detonates any concealed explosive device. Seems like that would have both detection and deterrent value. Just a thought…jt
Kudos to the company that made these. Shame on the people that wrote this article. Ever heard of a guy named Geraldo, who was thrown out of Iraq after drawing a diagram of a battle plan during the invasion phase of the Iraq war in 2003, in the sand, on live TV, before that military unit carried out the battle plan … ?? You just told every terrorist in the world where he/she can find anti-suicide bomber technology. ROCK!!
